Healing Prayer for Hurting People

Come, Holy Spirit into her greatest need. Manifest the healing power of Jesus. Show her You have not only forgiven her sins but are ready and have the power to heal her wounds. You are Jehovah-Rapha, the promise-keeping Healer. Let her receive Your tender mercy in this time of need. In Your faithfulness, minister healing grace and love.

We bring her under all the redeeming power of the blood of Jesus. You are El Roi, God who sees these hurts, needs and struggles. You have already made the Way of healing by the blood of Jesus. Heal all the woundings of childhood and more recently. Remove all the scars of rejection, shame, inferiority, guilt, fear, abuse and whatever else you reveal to us as we pray. Heal and remove all the barriers and hindrances in her life that are keeping her from being all Jesus died to make her to be. We bring her life to the cross. Apply all the work of redemption to her life for the transforming life of Christ to become hers. We pray that she will take everything to the cross, so that she can accept herself as the new person in Jesus that she is.

Spirit of Truth, Your truth will set her free. Bring the truth of Jesus to counter the lies that she has believed and to dispel the darkness and confusion caused by giving in to the lies. She needs a work of Your Spirit, because no amount of talking or teaching about this need will be effective. Minister to her these precious truths, that
  • She is free from sin by her Savior, Jesus Christ
  • She is free not to respond to the sins of others
  • She is free not to be condemned by the sins of others
  • She is free to express all her feelings to her Father-God, without condemnation, secure in knowing that Jesus understands the feeling of her infirmities.
  • She is free to have Your truth as her truth, Your mind as her mind, Your freedom as her freedom, Your grace as her grace, Your love as her love, Your strength as her strength, Your holiness as her holiness, Your steadfastness as her steadfastness and all the fullness of Jesus made real in her life.
  • She is free to receive all the new life Jesus gives her in exchange for her old life.

We thank You for heavenly intercessors. Jesus is living in her interceding. God the Holy Spirit is agreeing with these prayers according to the will of the Father, and the God of all comfort and Father of mercies is answering the prayers of His Son. Thank You for this three-fold cord of agreement that her soul is being healed according to all Your perfect love, grace and peace.

Thank You for the healing presence of Jesus the Son, God the Father, and God the Spirit, who ministers comfort, restoration, hope, trust and rest, so that she can live victoriously in the life of Jesus at all times. May she receive complete wholeness from You as she practices Your presence each day and fixes her eyes on Jesus. Thank You that You keep her in perfect peace as her mind is stayed on You, when she is confident in You, that You have begun a good work and will perfect Your work for Your glory in her life.
